Their service is impeccable.

I second the Cyclops. I agree that they tend to break easily. I had the Magnetic version for awhile and I went through 2 replacement of the resistance unit with no questions asked on replacement. When I asked if I could have the Fluid unit and how much to add, Customer rep said, no problem just send the broken magnetic unit and they'll send the fluid unit free of charge. Good CS and lifetime warranty IMO. I've had the fluid unit and no problem ever since. Yes, you will need a resistance trainer "tire" specifically for this purpose becuase you will eat through the tires really fast. Get those cheap $10-15 ones. One more thing, I started getting back to riding by riding the trainer since I can get some good quality time on it (i.e. no traffic, stop lights, etc.).
